Support for Android
Any plans to bring this app to the Android platform?
155 votesThough other priorities have kept us busy (too busy!), we’re doing some testing on the devices we want to support and we’re planning to release the Android app next month. We can barely wait!

When are you going to release an update for iPad Mini compability?
Well.. I just found out that iPad Mini is not yet supported by this app. I Really need to use this app for our vacation.
Thanks!
52 votesHi Dave,
We’re working on our iOS capture technology now and hope to support iPad Mini if we can! We’re focusing on iPhones first since we’ve seen many more TourWrists shooting panoramas on iPhones (and viewing them on iPads).

iPad Mini isn’t yet supported! Sorry about that. You should still be able to upload from your gallery!

43 votesThanks Mikome! We’re working on a BIG update that may not be ready for a bit, but we’ll definitely be testing on iPad Mini!

I download the app but after I sign in I can't create a new pano. It takes me to the website instead.
I download the app and signed in. When I press the "Create your own free tour" button it takes me to a screen that is like the website instead of creating a pano. Any suggestions?
26 votesHi,
The new shooting app only works with iPhone 4 and 4s, so in case you are using anything other it will take you to the TourWrist website instead.

iPad 2 shooting capability
I just found out about this cool app today and would love to use it on my iPad 2, but it doesn't seem to work for it, despite fulfilling the software requirements. Is the Create Pano option not available for the iPad 2?
25 votesHi Kelsey,
We have a version for the iPad2 that is almost ready for release. Thanks for being patient and we look forward to seeing what you create.

Switching primary tour scenes
Greetings from Puerto Vallarta. Two questions, if I may...
1. in a given Tour, where you may have several Scenes, is it possible to switch the primary scene (i.e. the one that shows up above, full size, while the others show up only as thumbnails)?
2. One of my tours in particular, http://tools.tourwrist.com/tours/18473 features two scenes. And yet, when I look at the list of all my tours using http://tools.tourwrist.com/groups it shows that I only have one scene. Weird, no?
20 votesThanks for bringing this to our attention. In response to your two inquiries:
1. We do not presently have a way to rearrange the order of scenes in a tour (the first scene is the one that gets shown). That said, we do see the value in this and hope to add this functionality in the coming months.
2. We have replicated the issue you’ve described and look to have this addressed within the week.

compass accuracy
I got your app for my ipad. I think it's great, awesome work. I just have one small criticism/thought. I presume you use the accelerometer for the vertical motion and the compass for the horizontal direction and that they really don't effect each other. When I rotate it very VERY slowly in the horizontal direction, it appears to "tick" every one degree. Why do you do that? Can you make it smoother? Does the compass only give you data accurate within one degree? I have to imagine the hardware can do better than that.
Other than that, awesome app and…
15 votesThank you. If your iPad is the first generation model, then yes, what you’re describing is the result of having no gyroscope. We’re using the magnetometer, and yes, it’s a relatively inaccurate instrument. The ticks you’re seeing are our way of mitigating constant inaccuracies which otherwise make the experience fairly undesirable. On the iPad 2, this is all alleviated thanks to the included gyroscope, so you should see no “ticking.”

I hope that soon i can use it in my ipad because i can view tours but not creat them
It would be cool if ipad user could also create instead of just watching. I loved this app and im going to australia for a semester and it would be great do use this and show my family and friends all of the places i have been
12 votesHi Isabel,
Our next release of the app will include the ability to shoot using the iPad along with some other features such as shooting and saving the panoramas to your iDevice and being able to edit them prior to posting them to TourWrist.
We really appreciate your feedback and thank you for being a TourWrist!

Offline saving
I've tried for 3 times to use the app in very special locations where wifi is not available (outdoor areas). With a very low 3G connection, the app failed to upload the image, even after trying for several minutes. So I lost the pictures. I believe this can be solved allowing the pictures to be saved offline within the app to be uploaded when a wifi connection is available. With the first two tries I've lost all the job when trying to connect in the wifi later. Because the app asked to insert the categories and subcategories that I already…
12 votesHi,
First off, I’m sorry that you had lost your panos, that has happened to me and I know it can be frustrating.
With that being said, we have started working on our next app update which will include the ability to be able to save and edit the pano on your iPhone and upload it at a later date when you are near a WiFi source.
Thanks for your feedback!

Option to disable showing user-uploaded panos
TourWrist was a beautiful software until you allowed to create own panos. Now it is impossible to browse panos as it was before: 8 of 10 panos are now 'My living room', 'My kitchen' etc with wrong categories, bad combined ans so on... I want you to add an option to disable viewing them or maybe add new category 'User uploads' so they not be mixed with other beautiful panoramas that I saw in previous versions of TourWrist. Thank you.
10 votesHi,
First off thanks for your submission. Let me start of with an analogy using YouTube as an example. On YouTube you will find several types of videos, some really great and some not so great. TourWrist with the new shooting app is silmiliar in the case that it’s new and that it’s going to take time for some of these folks to get better at shooting panos. With that said, we are planning on adding some filters so you the viewer can choose what content you want to see and the categories to choose from.
Either way, we really appreciate your feedback and your support of TourWrist!

What is the login for the crime scene 360
When I try to use the crime scene 360 app for iPad it asks for a log in. Please advise....
8 votesThank you for your interest in the app. At this time, CrimeSeen 360 is being used by University of Florida staff in preparation for the spring semester curriculum. Thus, it is not available for general use. We look forward to the opportunity to make it available for you to use as well.

Hi there!
When you tap on Upload, you can upload panos from your Camera Roll. For example, you can shoot a pano with Photosynth, save it to your Camera Roll, and upload it to TourWrist (as you would upload a video to YouTube). Once you upgrade to iOS 6, you’ll be able to use panorama mode on your iPhone as well.
Thanks,

No Immersive Mode
The app is not showing the option to change between immersive and touch screen mode, it is stuck on touch screen.
6 votesNot all iOS devices are created equal, and so with our free app, we have endeavored to deliver the best possible experience for each device type. While most other apps have found the inclusion of a gyroscope in the latest generation of devices to be an easy way to achieve “Immersive Mode” effects, we’ve gone the extra mile to create the same effect on older devices that at least have a magnetometer inside. Unfortunately, even the 3rd gen and older iPod Touches lacked both a gyroscope and a magnetometer, thus tying our hands completely. This is why your version of the app lacks the button you seek.

Hi Jane,
Please make sure that your rotation lock is off. For instruction on this please visit: http://www.iphonefaq.org/archives/97974 Also, make sure that you hold the iPhone at eye level when you are prompted to rotate it.
If this problem still persists can you send me a screenshot of the problem by clicking the home and power button simultaneously and sending that image to jeffhandley@tourwrist.com.
Thanks!

Preview created panorama before uploading
Is it possible to preview new panorama before uploading it?
6 votesHi,
At this point, No but it is something we have discussed and will probably implement in a future update.
Thanks for your question.

Is there a way to end the pano once I've made a circle before I hit 10 photos?
Is there a way to end the pano once I've made a circle before I hit 10 photos?
6 votesHi,
At the present you must shoot 10-36 degree photos to complete the 360 image.
Thanks for your support of TourWrist!
